Run.
Run from what you ask?
That my friend, is something you never want to know
That face
Those eyes that could make a heart stop beating
He was getting closer
The more I ran the darker this unknown place seemed to appear
Finally my fear became a reality
A wall
This one obstacle I so feared showed its sinister face
I slowly turned to look at this man that found pleasure in tormenting me
With one swift move he pinned me to the wall
I felt his hot breath on my warm cheek
I tightly shut my tear rimmed eyes wishing this would disappear
Wishing he would disappear
Wishing I could disappear
